STILL ANOTHER VICTORY FOR ANAHEIM BILLY KNOTT'S BASEBALL COLTS DEFEAT NORWALK BY A 5 TO 1 SCORE GAMES IN ANAHEIM HEREAFTER WILL BE PLAYED ON THE HIGH SCHOOL GROUNDS The Anaheim baseball team journeyed up to Norwalk Sunday and returned with another scalp hanging to their belt making nine straights. They ran up against a good bunch of players, but they were not good enough to break the winning streak. Lan Franco, who gets better as he grows older, was at his best Sunday, and the way he delivered curves and twists and drops to the Norwalk batters was bewildering to the enemy. Only one hit was made off him, and he retired 13 men by strike-outs. It was a great exhibition, and while the Norwalkers predicted early in the game that he couldn't keep up such a terrific gait, he was as strong in the ninth as he was in the first inning. Norwalk succeeded in getting one lone man across the plate, while Anaheim made five easy marks. Captain Jake Vetter, who is back in the game, clinched his reputation as a heavy hitter by polling out a three bagger. Jake also made a sensational catch out in right field, being com- and returned to the United States under the guise of fancy priced European wine. This should be one of the very best proofs that California wine is not excelled anywhere in the world. The agricultural report of 1910, which is the last obtainable at the present writing, shows that the seven southern counties have within their confines 14,328,649 grapevines. Of this number the individual counties are credited as follows: San Bernardina, 5,987,127; Los Angeles, 4,923,877; Imperial, 298,813; San Diego, 1,228,858; Orange, 282,682; Ventura, 36,398; Riverside, 1,570,794. HAVING EASY TIME IN BURMAH OIL FIELDS Brea Young Man Tells of Life in a Far-Away Country There are a number of Orange county men working in the oil fields of India and other Asiatic countries, and the following letter from W. W. Enoch to his father at Brea, gives a brief account of their life there: "I like this place very much; have nothing to do just put in time. The place is Chouk, Upper Burmah. Glinter and Fred McConnon are also here; the rest of the boys are at Yurangyoung. McBride, Charlie Nevins, Guy McGhee, Rupert and several others of the boys I knew in the U.S. are here, also a guy who claims relationship. "First thing after I arrived I got stung $145 for a pony and saddle. Nobody walks in this country. He is a 3-year-old, and some runner, and I can get my money out any time. The boys want me to enter him in the races, but nothing doing. They have a three-quarter track and meet about four times a year; a swimming pool, McADOO'S PLAN FOR TECTION Secretary McAdoo's that he would recommend congress the enactment retaining the present did not surprise the some time past it had that the need for more nue would probably in to suspend the free of the 1913 tariff law ing at least, especially ttration could not find obtaining the required this reason the format by the secretary of the it is understood, with the president, was take pronouncement of the administration, likely operation by congress.

Under the Payne-A was a great exhibition, and while the Norwalkers predicted early in the game that he couldn't keep up such a terrific gait, he was as strong in the ninth as he was in the first inning. Norwalk succeeded in getting one lone man across the plate, while Anaheim made five easy marks. Captain Jake Vetter, who is back in the game, cinched his reputation as a heavy hitter by polling out a three bagger. Jake also made a sensational catch out in right field, being compelled to mount a fence in order to reach the ball. Evans also scored a long hit, which netted him two bags. Edwards, the Norwalk pitcher also showed some class, retiring eleven men, but the heavy hitters of the Anaheim team, touched him for eight hits. The line-up of the two teams was as follows: Anaheim—Evans lf, Wetzel c, D. Lan Franco 1b, Armbel 3b, Jess Michaell ss, Salversan cf, Vetter rf, John Michaell 2b, A. Lan Franco p. Norwalk—Williams rf, Carver 3b, Morrow 2b, McCulloch 1b, Edwards p, Inbert c, Newton lf, Jones ss, Jewell cf. The Anaheim ball team has been reorganized—that is in the management department. It is now in command of Billy Knott, who promises some excellent games for the future. It would be difficult to better the line up of the team outside professional circles. Future games in Anaheim will be played on the high school grounds. No admission will be charged, but those who attend will be expected to contribute their mite toward paying the expenses of maintaining the best amateur ball team in the Southland. The boys go up to El Monte Sunday, and will no doubt come back with another victory perching on their banners. SOUTHERN COUNTIES' GRAPES One of the most attractive display features of the Southern California section in the California building at the San Francisco fair is the showing of table and wine grapees. This feature has not only proven a great drawing card to the residents of the state but has attracted the universal attention of the Eastern, Southern and Middle West visitors who are used to seeing but a few varieties of this product. Even Europeans from the great wine districts of Belgium, France, Spain and Italy have been most favorably im- features of the Southern California section in the California building at the San Francisco fair is the showing of table and wine grapes. This feature has not only proven a great drawing card to the residents of the state but has attracted the universal attention of the Eastern, Southern and Middle West visitors who are used to seeing but a few varieties of this product. Even Europeans from the great wine districts of Belgium, France, Spain and Italy have been most favorably impressed with the viticulture of Southern California. The table grapes are now being displayed on a highly ornamental artificial arbor, which is within itself a feature of the display. The table beneath the arbor is covered with great pyramids of lucid grapes while some of the most attractive bunches are suspended from the artificial vines. There is hardly a county of the seven southern counties which does not cultivate grapes extensively. In the South are some of the greatest vineyards of the world not to mention the fact that this district possesses a very great number of celebrated and large wineries. In the United States department of agriculture's experimental vineyards at Gunstl are to be found more than 500 varieties of wine and table grapes. This vineyard is one of the most important in the world and has a direct viticultural influence on the world's wine market. Here extensive experiments are made under favorable conditions and here many new varieties of grapes are cultivated. At the present time Southern California is displaying only table grapes. Earlier in the season wine grapes were shown in abundance. The following grapes are now on display: Malaga and Muscat, Flaming Tokay, Purple Cornichon, Rosa of Peru, Black Prince and Thompson Seedless. It has been proven that a great quantity of California wine exported to Europe is there bottled and labeled Any white man here does not dirty his hands at anything. We (that is, Schwartalander and I) were paying five servants, besides the two company furnishes, but we had too many to look after, and now we have only the cook and a man to take care of the premises. "We are running tower. I go to work at midnight. Have tea and pancakes or waffles at 3:30 a.m., breakfast at 10 and tea again at 3 p.m., and dinner at 5:30. We start up at 6 on Monday mornings and quit at 4 p.m. Saturdays. As soon as we get some more bollers we will work daytimes." He writes for his folks to send him a razor, a pair of shoes and a good pipe, as those things cannot be procured where he is. BREA WANTS TO INCORPORATE The Orange county supervisors will shortly be petitioned by residents of Brea to call a special incorporation election at that place, to be held soon after January 1. A petition asking for the election is now in circulation, and it is stated 140 signatures have been appended thereto. It will be presented at the next meeting of the supervisors. Albert Launer of Brea is acting as attorney for the petitioners. The area sought to be incorporated is almost three square miles. It covers the town of Brea and adjacent territory, including some valuable oil properties nearby. The population of the area is given as 900. While most of the townspeople are said to favor incorporation, it is thought some of the large oil companies whose property will lie within the incorporation and who will thus be called upon to pay taxes toward its government, may contest incorporation of the town. With Seal Beach newly incorporated, Brea taking steps to become a municipality, and Placentia and Garden Grove agitating the same step, it looks as though Orange county will soon have several new incorporated cities. NOT A RELIGION There are in Europe habitants in the warren these there are 180 Catholics, mainly in central Europe; 112 Catholics, and 8,000 live in the east and south; 200 Protestants whose northern and western 000,000 Jews who are ed.

In Germany there are man Catholics and 2 tants in a population This is the first grope in which religion one of the principal hostilities. From the staintine the Great toe of 1912 religion has been motive of most Europe The Thirty Years' War mostly between Catholic estants. If all the Protestant gather in the present Catholics, Great Britain many and part of H acting together angel Austria and Russia. Evidently a desire of their adversaries lets into their bodies McADOO'S PLAN FOR SUGAR PROTECTION Secretary McAdoo's announcement that he would recommend to the next congress the enactment of legislation retaining the present tariff on sugar did not surprise the sugar trade. For some time past it had been expected that the need for more Federal revenue would probably induce Congress to suspend the free sugar provision of the 1913 tariff law for the time being at least, especially if the administration could not find other means of obtaining the required revenue. For this reason the formal announcement by the secretary of the treasury, made, it is understood, with the approval of the president, was taken as an official pronouncement of the policy of the administration, likely to be put into operation by congress. Members of the sugar trade who were interviewed were not disposed to enter into an academic discussion of the tariff, but commented quite freely on the fact that the elimination of uncertainties in regard to the sugar tariff question was a good thing. They said they felt that Mr. McAdoo's statement plainly indicated that sugar would not be admitted free of duty on and after May 1, 1916, as provided for in the Underwood-Simmons tariff law. In the past the government has derived more customs revenue from the tariff on sugar than from the taxation of any other single imported article, the annual duties amounting to between $55,000,000 and $60,000,000. The Underwood tariff provided for a reduction of the rate of duty, taking effect on March 1, 1914, and the entire elimination of all duties on and after May 1, 1916. Under the Payne-Aldrich tariff the rate on sugar of 08 test was 1.625 cents redeeming love by throwing stinkpots at them, is not the dominant motive with either Kaiser Wilhelm or King George.

In the Automobile a position second to sides we hear the and power in excess The reason for this is A man's pride in his car incumbates the performance of was when the automobilist wished to make a grade, but that time motorist measuring a car's price high, but by its ability to assist you please, to the steady glide Many motorists have tensely practical standpoint out opening up a subject on well informed. And the big has on its hands for months STUDEBAKER is the POW In the Studebaker you talk about. You have power In the past the government has derived more customs revenue from the tariff on sugar than from the taxation of any other single imported article, the annual duties amounting to between $55,000,000 and $60,000,000. The Underwood tariff provided for a reduction of the rate of duty, taking effect on March 1, 1914, and the entire elimination of all duties on and after May 1, 1916. Under the Payne-Aldrich tariff the rate on sugar of 98 test was 1.685 cents per pound for Java and European sugars and 1.348 cents per pound for Cuban sugars, which are entitled to a 20 per cent reduction. Since March 1, 1914, the rate of duty on Java and European sugars has been 1.256 cents per pound, and the rate on Cuban sugars 1.0048 cents per pound. Under the reduced rate the income derived by the government from sugar duties has amounted to about $30,000,000 or $32,000,000 a year. Following are the quantities and values of sugar imports for the past three years: | June | Pounds | Value | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 1913 | ... | 4,740,041,488 | $103,639,823 | | 1914 | ... | 5,066,281,873 | 101,649,375 | | 1915 | ... | 5,420,981,867 | 173,992,603 | Claus A. Spreckels, president of the Federal Sugar Refining company, who has advocated free sugar for a great many years and was largely responsible for congress removing the duty at the last revision, said that he had not yet made up his mind whether or not he would oppose congressional action rescinding this part of the law when the time came. He intimated that he was still of the opinion that sugar ought to be on the free list and that the sugar tariff was by no means the only source of revenue. The Federal and Arbuckle Brothers are the only two large refining interests that are opposed to the replacement of duty on sugar. The American, the National, the Warner and the Cuban-American sugar companies favor a duty on sugar. NOT A RELIGIOUS WAR There are in Europe 405,000,000 inhabitants in the warring countries. Of these there are 180,000,000 Roman Catholics, mainly in southern and central Europe; 110,000,000 Greek Catholics, and 8,000,000 Moslems who live in the east and southeast; 98,000,000 Protestants whose homes are in northern and western Europe and...

There are in Great Britain only 6,000,000 Roman Catholics in a population of 46,000,000 inhabitants; in France there are only 1,500,000 Protestants in a population of 39,000,000. In Italy there are 34,000,000 Roman Catholics in a population of 35,000,000. In Russia there are 12,000,000 Roman Catholics, 6,000,000 Jews, 14,000,000 Moslems and over 100,000,000 Greek Catholics. In Austria-Hungary there are 24,000,000 Roman Catholics, 8,000,000 Greek Catholics, 4,500,000 Protestants and 2,500,000 Jews in a population of 49,000,000. In Germany there are 24,000,000 Roman Catholics and 25,500,557 Protestants in a population of 65,557,557. This is the first great war in Europe in which religion has not been one of the principal factors causing hostilities. From the days of Constantine the Great to the Balkan wars of 1912 religion has been an impelling motive of most European contests. The Thirty Years' War was a fight mostly between Catholics and Protestants. If all the Protestants were acting together in the present war against the Catholics, Great Britain, North Germany and part of Hungary would be acting together against France. Italy, Austria and Russia. Evidently a desire to save the souls of their adversaries by shooting bullets into their bodies and to illustrate improved by the activities responsible for the increased volume of our exports, the value of the principal crops is greater than that of 1914 by about $500,ooo,ooo. The prosperity springing from such crops will not be monopolized. Not only are the producers scattered all through every state in the Union, but their profits will find their way into all channels of trade, bringing a healthy stimulation of business in all lines. It is not a case of big fish swallowing little ones or of dog eat dog. It is a prosperity in which all classes of the population share directly or indirectly. Agriculture is not the only thing that creates wealth, but it is still the foundation of our national prosperity. The manufacturers, who add wealth to raw material; the carriers, who bring producer and consumer together; the much abused middlemen, who do for individuals what the carriers do for sections; the bankers, who furnish exchange of credit, and many other agencies are essential to the prosperity and happiness of people in a complex civilization. But in this country all are dependent to no small degree on the farmer and all rejoice in his prosperity, so necessary to their own. Bird socials are the newest innovation at Watts. One was held Monday at which each guest carried with her a bird in a gilded cage. They were hung in the parlor and warbled while the ladies chattered over their whist games, but the dove of peace, it is reported, was conspicuously absent. It's an off day when the people of Watts are not divided on some question of public moment. Only last week the wets and the drys fought another battle for supremacy, and the wets won hands down. Now the dry have started a movement for disincorporation, and the battle is raging as fiercely as ever. Expert piano tuning, F. W. Schmidt. ORANGE SHOW State Convention to be Held With Noted Authorities to Give Lectures The state fruit growers convention will be held in San Bernardina next February. In connection with the Sixth National Orange Show, February 17-24, announces Dr. A. J. Cook, State Horticulturist. The decision was reached at a meeting of the directors and officers of the California Fruit Growers Exchange in Los Angeles, at which the plan for the convention was unanimously endorsed. Thousands of citrus fruit growers will be there during the orange show and many of them have urged that for the occasion the state organization secure the leading citrus fruit authorities in the world to lecture and explain theories on vital things connected with the industry. The decision for what is planned as the most comprehensive convention in the history of the orange and lemon industry will be welcomed throughout the state, say local citrus fruit men, for the reason growers will at one time be able to see the choicest fruits grown by California and hear papers by noted authorities. ORANGE COUNTY FIRST IN OREGON EXHIBIT Better Than Last Year When This County Captured all the Prizes Orange county is to have a fine exhibit of subtropical fruits at the Oregon Agricultural College students' exhibits, which will be seen by delegates to the Oregon State Fruit Growers' Convention. The exhibit was packed and shipped Friday afternoon, by J. R. Schooley and Secretary Metzgar of Studebaker The Automobile world Power has attained second to none in importance. On all the hear the motorist demanding power—power in excess of all ordinary needs. Reason for this is natural. Power and Price go hand in hand. Side in his car increases or decreases, as the case may be, as he the performance of his car with that of the other fellow's. Time the automobilist was content to shift back to first if necessary grade, but that time has decidedly passed and now we find the measuring a car's power not alone by the ability to make a hill in its ability to ascend with an ease and grace comparable, if not to the steady gliding ascent of an aeroplane. Motorists have come to view the power situation from an in-actical standpoint. It is no longer possible to talk power with-up a subject on which the prospective buyer is remarkably明了. And the big job that the whole Studebaker organization hands for months to come is to make the public KNOW that MKER is the POWER car of the market. The Studebaker you have something more than power itself to You have power plus economy. When a man wants Power motorists have come to view the power situation from an intactical standpoint.

When a man wants Power y expects to pay for it in higher fuel costs, in high tire bills and pairs because greater weight is in all but the case of a few cars, giving companion of greater power. STUDEBAKER has taken the high-powered car out of the weight made paying for weight an extravagance without any realized Actually, a Studebaker offers more power per pound than car built. The automobilist who knows the STUDEBAKER it is not necessak of the chief reasons for its superiority. To those not acwith the car we stand ready to demonstrate and prove that all the le by the manufacturers are absolutely true.

Any old bicycle rider knows that he can retain control of his machine and maintain his balance when the rear wheel skids badly as long as the front wheel holds its grip on the road, but that he becomes helpless whenever the front wheel slides. The same conditions are true in the case of the automobile, but in an exaggerated degree, for its weight and the average speed both tend to make the grip of the front wheels on the road precarious, and a skidding front wheel is not much different from a broken steering gear in the possibilities of disaster. Recognizing these facts, it is apparent that chains are fully as necessary on the front wheels as on the rear. Ladies lresses a specialty. Anaheim Dye Works. NOTICE State of California.
